The Palace Cafe
Location: 4th and Main Ellensburg, WA
Welcome to the Palace Cafe, which has been serving Ellensburg and its visitors
for over 100 years.
In the early 1900s, Thomas Massouras became the new
owner at the restaurant’s new site on the corner of 3rd
and Main, then a profitable location because of its proximity
to the railroad depot.
By the 1940s rail travel had diminished and Massouras sold
the restaurant to Ted Wicks who operated The Palace
during World War II until closing shop for two years on
March 27, 1947.
In 1949 he again lifted the restaurant’s shutters at its
present site in the Pearson Building before selling to
Marshal L. Remelin a few years later. Mr. Remelin was the sole owner until
1966 when Ted and Agnes Bugni, of the Teanaway Valley, bought the
restaurant.
Today, the restaurant is still proudly in the hands of the Bugni family and, as
The Palace enters its second century of service, they continue to strive to
achieve the highest standards in food and service.
We sincerely hope you enjoy the downtown Ellensburg family tradition.

PITA PIT
Location: 111 West 3rd Avenue Ellensburg, WA
This "fresh thinking and healthy eating" could now be
served up quickly for people on the go. And for those
who weren’t in a hurry, we designed our restaurants to
provide a casual and fun atmosphere—part of which
includes friendly employees who are good at what they
do and treat every customer as special.
Once we began serving lunch and dinner (late-night snacks, too), our unique
idea took off. People of all ages and professions have quickly come to love
Pita Pit. Franchising began in Canada in 1997, and within two years, it came to
the US, where today it’s quickly spread to locations nationwide. (We’ve even
began serving breakfast.) Pita Pit is a hit.
